The updated kitchen features crisp white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, stone-look counters, and direct access to the backyard oasis and garage. Upstairs, generously sized bedrooms are complemented by two finished third-floor bonus spaces ideal for a home office, guest suite, playroom, creative studio, or workout area.
